In fact as I understand it, applying liberal amounts of thermal paste may, in fact, increase temps. My impression is, and please correct me if I'm wrong, that thermal paste is designed to be used in small amounts. So, by not using it as it was designed to be used (a la globbing it on) can cause poor heat dissipation and overheating.
